## White Certificates and cogeneration

The article describes White Certificates as an energy-efficiency instrument introduced in Italy about 15 years earlier and links them to decarbonization, efficient electro-technologies, and industrial digitalization.

It also defines cogeneration as the combined production of electricity and heat.

Franco Asuni, Chief Business Developer at Whitenergy, highlights opportunities connected with industrial energy efficiency, high-efficiency cogeneration certificates, new technologies, and the EPC model.
